24" wheels. the bit about ratios in that article means nothing to me.0

24" MTB 55/24=2.3 36/16=2.25
This means that a 36t chainring used with a 16t sprocket on the back wheel will give a ratio of 2.25, which is pretty close to the guide ratio of 2.3
You could run a 32t chainring with a 14t sprocket.
32/14=2.28
Which is also close to 2.3
Hope that helped.0
